Marc Jacobs Shoes: The Good, Bad & The Fugly

Seriously, why is Marc Jacobs stuff so schizophrenic? It's either gorgeous or atrocious.
First: I must say that I am enamored of these Marc Jacobs patent cone heel pumps:

($335, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Barneys Co-op)
They're slightly less salmon-y in real life, and they're just overall perfect.


($325, Marc Jacobs, Barneys Co-op)
Perfection!


($198, Marc By Marc Jacobs, Pinkmascara.com)
These are amazing. And my size too!


... But how does that explain these atrocities?
($300, Marc Jacobs, Barneys)
I hate criss-cross no matter what, but a criss-cross Mary Jane? So misguided.


($235, Marc Jacobs, Barneys)
The biggest crime of all! Asymmetrical slingback? Metallic? Jeweled heel! FOR SHAME, MARC JACOBS!
